this should be included in every Olympic - BB as it rules.

Not sure.. depends whos up for eviction

Bored with the run up to the Olympics already. Have absolutely no interest in it whatsoever. Will be BB for me.

Always watch recorded BB late at night when its more quiet anyway, so Olympics.

sick of hearing about it already. i watch bb to avoid things like that. complete waste of money that olympic nonsence.

1948. BB will have to be recorded that night. Won't want to miss the opening ceremony. Although it does get a bit tedious in parts, and I can't see it as being as good as Beijing to be honest.

Did they even have TVs in the 1940s :conf:

BB is way more fun to watch.

I only watch the Olympics for the the races, don't care too much for the opening ceremony. If you really want to watch it later then im pretty sure it will be plastered all over YouTube.

I've got a ticket to the technical rehearsal for the opening ceremony at Olympic Park on 25th July, so I'll just record it on Friday and watch the eviction instead.

Olympics.....by a LONG LONG shot.

Public television broadcasting started in the United Kingdom in 1936.

Opening ceremony is just a parade of athletes and flags and some artistic ceremony. Id watch BB and review the ceremony on youtube later

Erm, the Olympics. I bet BB will have dire ratings that night.

Olympics obviously.

Genuinely concerned for the state of this country by this poll at the moment

Olympics by far.

I agree. I was expecting a landslide victory for the Olympics with only a few voting for BB.

I'm quite appalled that it's such a closely fought poll.

What is so great about the Olympics? A parade and a bunch of people I don't know playing boring games isn't my idea of entertainment.

There's a lot of non-Brits on here who won't be as excited about it though, plus there's quite a sizeable chunk of the population who just aren't that enthusiastic having seen the huge cost of it all, the major security operation etc.

emmm you just described BB

Kind of like BB....

Why are people so dramatic about other peoples preference? Does my head in.

i go on holiday on the thursday so neither would have been big brother as the olympics is a load of crap

I agree.

"the olympics is a load of crap"
You must have done months of intense research to come up with that considered opinion.
